Twice I have flown into Halifax when a disaster was underway, Fiona and then the Westwood Hills fire. It's an indescribable feeling when the plane has safely landed & you are told you can turn on your phone, only to hear the emergency alert klaxon slightly out of sync from phones all over the plane.

A cargo flight will haul 14 tons of nitrocellulose from John F. Kennedy Airport in New York to an Israeli weapons manufacturer.

It appears, from discussions with sources inside Netanyahu’s office that they do, in fact, “got my nose again”

Don't get lulled into a false sense of peace, this may just be the eye of the genocide passing overhead.

Canada should leave NATO and do a mutual defense treaty with Mexico

I suspect the C-suites of every property insurer are looking at California and remembering that there are three other horsemen: Mario, Wario and Waluigi.

Oh yea? Well, I guess we should take him at his wor—I can’t even finish that sentence. Ridiculous.

Wait a second

Every rapacious oligarch now carries an ever-present, tinnitus-like terror in every cold-sweat step they take in public that, at any second, there’s going be a tap on their shoulder, they jerk to a halt as they hear… It’s, me… Mario.

Not calling for anything… but imagine the indelible mark that would be left on history if some dude named Mario busted him out of prison.

Finally catching up on this week’s QAA podcast and: wow, totally batshit story that was new to me! Tl;dr version is 6 military intelligence soldiers believed a Ouija board told them Jesus in a UFO was going to do the Rapture and they went AWOL in 1990. My favorite kind of ep

Americans suddenly attacking the sky gods let's go

POV: You’re a passenger airliner that just took off from Newark

So the Israelis basically hunted the only orthopaedic in northern Gaza, Dr Saeed Joda, with a drone 14 months of live-streamed genocide

Many of the employees I've talked to share the public’s anger, which NYT might realize if they bothered to talk to anyone outside management

Gavrilo Pricinp? Please... hold my Psilocybin pre-workout...

This is the best part of a news cycle. As platforms play a hungry game of curling as they try desperately to sweep the parh of the story's inertia to match their editorial bent. #LuigiMangioni

Canadian Media: They were military aged males, clearly Hamas. Also Canadian media: The leader of the Syrian revolution is a complicated figure...

The more you learn about the pillars of the business community… Dollar martyr, no sense.

Has anyone considered that the shareholders may have orchestrated a case of “Insider whacking”?

C.E.(F.A.F.)O.

Death of an empire in two screenshots.

No shit murder is bad. The jokes about the United CEO aren’t really about him; they’re about the rapacious healthcare system he personified and which Americans feel deep pain and humiliation about

I thought this was a Purim parody but Purim's months away and this is real: blogs.timesofisrael.com/lebensraum-n...

"He was a human being with a family" yeah so are the rest of us, shut up

143 people have been killed by an unknown illness in Congo.

lol. lmao. this monument’s unveiling was delayed for over a year because it had Nazi and Nazi collaborator names on it, but will now be opening and uh:

a sentence that upon reading would immediately end the life of a victorian child

so what does 181 man hours of surveillance of you and your family spread out over 7 months look like? one thing the EPS were doing was hanging outside my house taking pictures of my partner and small child. (thread)

every person over 23 right now:

Kendrick Lamar beat Drake in a rap battle so thoroughly that Drake called the police. I will never stop laughing about this!

Well, now I know we made the right decisions

Can we get a Veronica Mars style kickstarter together to get Harmony Korine to make the Matt Gaetz biopic?

The problem is this authora & many others don't realise that you cannot compare X to Twitter, X to Bsky. When I log into X I am presented with hate speech, terrorist content, gore, mass shooter videos. Bsky and its community is not an echo chamber for refusing to accept this content in our feeds.

I'M ALIVE!!! Fuck you, Schrödinger!

I suspect that the worm that died in RFK’s brain has a star on the wall at Langley

President Biden has authorized the first use of U.S.-supplied long-range missiles by Ukraine for strikes inside Russia

1/ X's algorithm was changed in mid-July 2024 to systematically boost Republican-leaning accounts and Elon Musk's own account following his endorsement of Donald Trump, according to a newly released computational study of engagement from the Queensland University of Technology.⬇️

Bluesky is much like Outback Steakhouse in that there are no rules and people are constantly exposing themselves.

it’s so fucking funny to see your buddies living happily in healthy relationships. “I’m just sending a photo of this flower to my wife” lmao dawg I saw you puke into the open window of an unattended cop car in 2009 and now you’re a wonderful father

Artsy!

every time hillary clinton comes up now i just think about this post
